Where is the problem occurring?

I encountered the problem while using the application (Frontend)

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Chrome

Current behavior

Hi,
I noticed that when I select the first project in Planka, the edit icon on the right side of the project title and board doesn't show up. But when I select the second project, it appears normally.

Also, the "Test" text isn't shown on the right side either.

Not sure if this is a bug or something missing.

If it helps, I'm happy to try fixing it.

Desired behavior

No response

Steps to reproduce

Steps to Reproduce:
Open Planka.

Select the first project from the project list.

Look at the right side of the project title and board area — the edit icon and the dynamic label/text are not visible.

Now select the second project.

In this case, the edit icon and the right-side text appear correctly.

Hi! Thanks for pointing that out.

This behavior is actually intended - Edit Mode enables automatically if there are no boards in the project, so you can immediately create a new one. If there are already boards, you can enable Edit Mode by clicking the lock icon (next to the notifications bell). Once Edit Mode is on, you can edit the project, create/edit boards, add lists to the current board.

I agree that it's not always very intuitive - I also find it a bit annoying when I want to edit two projects back-to-back, and after switching projects the lock resets. We probably need to add a user setting to be able to persist the Edit Mode state so you can keep it enabled permanently if you want.

Thanks for the info! I honestly hadn’t noticed that before.
